I have visited the HELMET PARADISE in Abids, Hyderabad today, I had a budget of 3k and i wanted to buy an LS2..
Saw a LS2 Supra FF358, and the guy quoted 4xxx INR for it. It fits my head perfectly. He said its the only shop in Hyderabad where i could get an LS2. After a bit of bargaining, he said maximum he could reduce was to 3.5k.
I have seen someone in this thread quoting 2.9k for the same lid. Should i shed extra 500 bucks and get that one?
I'm a college student and I have to think twice about every penny I spend. I want a quick reply whether it is worth 3.5k...
I'm attaching a pic of the lid below

buddy..bike terminal...r.p road front of shell petrol pump..u can find many ls2 with cheap price than abids
cheers

Got rid of the impulsive buy of Daijya and got myself a SparX - S-07 Nemesis Grey!

That nobody could convincingly answer my questions on the origins of Daijya made me dump it for SparX!

Perfect fit! DOT and ECE 22.05 certs embossed (not stickered)

Got a dark visor along with it, ear plugs and a set of eyebrow vents! Not to forget a reflective "X" along with another longer sticker (don't know where to stick that though) :P

Its got the double-D ring chin fastener!

There is no secret - it costs INR 8500. Very good quality padding. Removable cheek padding. Checked all vents - found them to be working.

Daijya - i found a we bit heavier than SparX (plus lot of speculations on its origin etc) - Daijya carbon is around INR 12900 (almost 10% of the cost of the bike I am buying)

Where are you from?

Delhi, I cannot vouch for any store but you can get the sparx and host of others online on performance racing store online. I would still suggest measure your head using a soft tape and check for the right size for ur head. Sparx shells are one shade smaller than other brands.

The PRS website is acting weird, I can not add anything to the cart :|. I guess I will try out a few shops at karol Bagh and Naraina here in Delhi, and if I still don't find anything, then I will call up PRS.
By the way sir, how do you like yours ? I guess it's the best in the price group of 8k-10k, isn't it ??

Hey, thanks a lot!. Will go there and check out. Do you have any idea whether can i get them from kRP showroom in the Naraina area ?

As mentioned by curse, email them, call them, talk to Prasad or vicky. Very helpful guys and 100% trustworthy!

Mine - I have tried quite a few ones so far (even bought one "Daijya" impulsively). Lost sanity for that one moment and ended up buying that. But was never happy with it, though I never used it. The fit wasn't too comfy. the helmet looked huge on my little pea sized head. I even realized that my whole head to could roll inside the helmet. lol (i had inadvertantly picked up an oversized shell) - that was the Daijya story.

Fortunately the Helmet Paradise guy had no problems in me returning that and picking another one of my choice. And the choice was SparX (the same as in the avatar of curse)

Fits beautifully. Did enough homework before asking the shop guy to get me the particular size (M). DOT/ECE certifications embossed on the shell. cheek pads can be removed and put back. eye brow vents, vent just below the visor. both of which can be opened and shut. and an extra visor (dark), ear plugs, a set of stickers (1 reflective X). double D chin fastener. No idea yet about noise levels, though I have heard good reviews from users of SparX out here. And yes - my opinion - it is the best in that price range I could find.

The one on your avatar IS the one I got!
